Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001414<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1415US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1416Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1417newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1418
1419The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1420improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1421applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1422over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1423Mesa full time for some time to come.
1424
1425For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org. For more
1426information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

1430This donation from John/id is very generous. Keith and I are very
1431grateful.
